Family

This past Saturday John stopped by with his kids – Liam and Evelyn. Then Joey came by with Joshua while Madelyn was napping and Meredith came with Reagan and Asher. All the kids played while we had some time to talk. It was a very nice day. 

Joey has had a hard week and could use prayer as he is back on his chemo this week.  He has been so tired for the past week that it is hard for him to do much. But, he made it for a nice visit on Saturday. He was actually ready to leave so he could go home to rest,  but Joshua was having such a good time he said he wanted to stay a little longer for him. Please remember him in your prayers. It seems that it gets harder and harder for him to do the chemo. 

I have meant to blog our books for the month of May and just haven’t seemed to get around to it. Maybe in the next day or so I will — and our mark-my-time bookmark. 

Joshua decided he wanted to help Andrew while he was here. Andrew had planned a day of baking on Saturday and spent most of the day in the kitchen. Kids came and went helping him, but Joshua decided baking was lots of fun and helped for most of the time he was here. I love to watch kids in the kitchen – and take pictures of them. 

Everybody was either running around the yard playing or in the kitchen making cookies and brownies except I looked out and there was Asher playing in the dirt all by himself and definitely having fun.

Memorial Day and A Birthday

We had a cookout and a birthday party on Memorial Day. Bethany had a birthday and I don’t usually blog about birthdays but since we celebrated hers on Memorial Day I will this time. It was a nice day and we all enjoyed visiting with each other. Unfortunately, a few couldn’t be here because of sickness or work or even going to the airport. 
We did Bethany’s birthday first and even ate cake and ice cream before we cooked. Just decided we would do that as all the kids wanted to.

After cake and ice cream we cooked and the kids went outside to let the balloons go.

Brother and Sister — they used to play together all the time as kids — Emily was quite the tomboy.

I am so glad my kids are so close to each other and enjoy spending time together. It makes our family cookouts so much more fun.

I also love that our grandkids can spend time here and play with their cousins and aunts and uncles and everyone seems to have fun and get along — most of the time.

Bethany got a fairy house door and steps for her birthday and she put it together and got it set up before the night was over.
